A few weeks ago I posted about artist Jake Parker’s Inktober challenge, which involved making a drawing every day through October and posting it on a social media platform of your choice (Twitter in my case). I didn’t quite manage to make a drawing every day, and I certainly didn’t post all my efforts, but I had fun with my doodles and I enjoyed seeing how other participants interpreted the daily prompts. Most of them were better than mine!
Here, as promised, are a few of my efforts, with prompts.
October may be over, but you can still participate in Inktober52 and post a drawing once a week throughout the year. Drawing – and looking at other people’s artwork – can open channels into the subconscious and unlock great ideas for stories!
As someone who’s just started drawing, I agree that looking at other people’s work does wonders for the inspiration. I enjoyed looking at yours!

Thank you! I’m no artist, but I find doodling very relaxing when I’m taking a break from writing.

Oh wow these are so good. You really have a great gift for creating fun and funny images. I especially love your shoes image and the storm in a teacup, so clever! I couldn’t think what to draw except something so plain, lol So great and you are right that even looking at others work can inspire something creative within. I forgot about the inktober 52 prompts, I should do them to keep something going throughout the year! 😀
